Frequently Asked Questions

The 3-month program is designed to kickstart change, stabilize symptoms, and set a strong foundation. The 6-month program is for deeper transformation - giving enough time for re-testing labs, consolidating habits, and supporting long-term stability.

We start with a 60-minute consultation. Follow-ups are 30 minutes each, usually every 2 weeks). In some cases, early on, some clients may benefit from weekly sessions, while bi-weekly sessions works well as things begin to stabilise.

If you have recent labs (run in the last 6 months), we’ll review those. If not, we may recommend specific tests so we can understand your baseline. We interpret results using optimal ranges (not just “normal”), so we can catch early changes before they become bigger issues.

Yes. We work with clients worldwide through secure video sessions. If you’re in Mumbai, you can also book in-person sessions at our South Mumbai clinic. Both formats offer the same core service; in-person offers additional body composition checks.

You’ll have unlimited email support to ask questions or share updates, plus access to simple symptom and meal tracking. That way, you’re never left on your own between sessions.

No. We don’t hand out rigid diet charts. Instead, we co-create a nutrition prescription that fits your condition, culture, and lifestyle. We focus on one new habit every two weeks so change is sustainable.

We may recommend evidence-based supplements that support your condition. We don’t prescribe medications, but we do work alongside your existing doctors to ensure your nutrition plan complements your medical care.

Yes, but not a gym program. We provide safe, non-prescriptive guidelines that support your condition (e.g. post-meal walks for blood sugar, resistance training for PCOS, safe prenatal movement). If you need structured training, we’ll guide you to the right professionals.

We know life happens. You’ll have a grace period to complete your sessions: 2 weeks for the 3-month program and 4 weeks for the 6-month program. We’ll do our best to reschedule within your availability, and if you’d like continued support beyond your package, we can set up a tailored maintenance plan.

Program fees don’t cover lab tests, supplements, or consultations with other specialists. We’ll guide you on what’s useful, but costs for these are separate.

Most clients notice changes in energy, digestion, or mood within 4-6 weeks. Lab markers often improve within 3 months. By 6 months, deeper changes consolidate into habits that last. Please keep in mind that results vary from person to person.

Yes. Our prenatal and postnatal support is designed with safety as the priority. We work closely with your OB-GYN’s guidance and adapt nutrition to each trimester, postpartum recovery, or lactation needs.

Your plan is tailored to your preferences, culture, and needs; whether you’re vegetarian, vegan, or dealing with allergies or intolerances. We’ll build around what works for you.

This consult is perfect if you want a professional review of your labs (even when your doctor said they're "normal"), have been feeling a little off, low energy, digestion issues, PMS, mood swings, or simply want direction. It’s also for people who are fairly aware of their nutrition and lifestyle habits but want expert confirmation, or for anyone curious about what working together feels like before committing to a 3- or 6-month program. Think of it as a snapshot of your health today, with clear recommendations for tomorrow.

This consult is not a substitute for medical treatment or prescriptions. It isn’t a diet plan or detailed habit-by-habit coaching, that’s part of our complete care program. And it’s not meant for complex or long-standing conditions where root-cause care requires months of follow-up.

If during this consult you discover you’d benefit from more support, like lab monitoring, habit coaching, or long-term symptom resolution, you can always transition smoothly into our complete care program. You can even start with this consult and decide to convert before the session ends or before material is sent out.

Some costs are not included in the consult and require out-of-pocket expenses:

• Lab tests
• Consultations with doctors
• Non-medical services like fitness classes and supplements

If you have recent labs (within the past 3-6 months), bring them along. If not, we’ll guide you on what basic tests may be useful for our review.

This is a one-time session with no built-in follow-ups. If you’d like continued support, you can always book a follow-up consult or move into our complete care program.

Yes. The consult can be tailored to your stage of pregnancy or postpartum recovery. That said, it’s not a replacement for the care of your OB-GYN.

Absolutely! Food Freedom Program was designed keeping in mind the frequent-flier, the busy-bee, and everyone in between. The eating guide is super flexible and can be followed from anywhere in the world, even with limited resources. Either way, the focus remains on the weekly goals!

You have access for a total of 77 days to the Food Freedom Program platform. However, the educational guides (which are available for download) and online forum, stay with you for life!

No! To strengthen the security of your account, we require two-factor authentication every time you log in. Once you have entered your password, a code will be emailed to your registered email. This secures your login and prevents attackers from exploiting weak credentials.

Additionally, each member only gives YOU access to the online forum – from where you can interact with other members. Importantly, as a member, you will also have your journal and e-notepad inside the platform.

Whether you are plant-based, love meat, or have food allergies or intolerances, we respect your cultural, ethical, and dietary preferences and have got them covered. The program contains flexible eating guidelines that you can customize to your preferences. Additionally, the recipes come with vegetarian, vegan, as well as non-vegetarian options. They’re suggestions – not mandates!

While we provide daily workouts (based on the principle of progressive overload,) you can most certainly follow your training plan. All you need is a part of dumbbells if you don’t have access to a gym. This is simply a suggestion for anyone looking for structure, anyone starting, and/or anyone looking for a new way to move!

Given that we’re looking at this program as a model for a sustainable life, you can drink alcohol/indulge in your favorite foods if you choose to! We don’t want you to feel burdened by the suggestions we’re making; we want you to feel excited about the possibility of change! Therefore, we will go over how you can incorporate indulgences into your lifestyle and still achieve what’s best for your body, guilt-free!

Several of our clients notice a significant non-tangible change within the first few weeks of working together. Some indicators like blood markers may take longer to heal than symptoms like energy levels and brain fog. You can find out more about what our clients have to say, here.

The truth is we don’t necessarily need supplements. We survived decades without pills and powders. However, we don’t necessarily breathe clean air, hunt for our food, get adequate sunlight, or even sleep enough. So, they’re great at filling gaps in our lifestyles.

Our take is simple – If you need them, take them – and if you don’t need them, don’t take them.

Our food-first approach recommends that you try and meet your needs naturally. But, if you struggle to obtain good quality nutrients through food – we may recommend a few supplements to help.

Importantly, we don’t partner with or promote any brands – so we are never financially incentivized to prescribe supplements. However, we may search the market to find certain supplements that are safe for consumption/third-party verified, for the best effect.
